Refining Zoa

The Zoa model is getting tested and refined. Rebecca has been busy building and tweaking a minituature 1/24th scale model, to give us a physical object to look at and test ideas. It lets us make fine adjustments to make the structure easier to build, structurally sound, and more beautiful to look at. The seeds which appear as metal mesh in the picture above will actually be made out of wood, with fins and an open structure to give it better texture and less resistance to wind. (You know it's going to be windy out there). Next will be a 1/8th scale model that we can take actual measurements from, and that
